"Sit down in front of a playable level and it is immediately clear that Killzone 2 will be one of the most cinematic and immersive games ever produced on a console," the publication reports. "The raw processing power of the PlayStation 3 has been harnessed to create a level of detail seen only in a handful of games on high-end PCs."
The reason, according to what Sony told the BBC, is that a single level can take upwards of six months to develop given the amount of level detail. "With such hyper-real detail it is easy to see why the game is not due for release until 2008," says the preview.
Not everything was praised, however, and the game could see its fair share of controversy given its intense violence says the BBC.
"The game mechanics of the level I saw are not particularly innovative - it is a classic run and shoot adventure, mixing different weapon types and simple tasks to good effect... [still] the high watermark for realism and immersion in video games could soon be lifted."
I think it will be worth the wait
